A lightly drawn, informal print face with monoline strokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with a gently uneven rhythm that preserves a handwritten feel while staying clearly legible. Curves are open and slightly elastic, and straight strokes show subtle wobble and tapering at joins, giving a natural pen-drawn texture. Counters are relatively small in the lowercase, and ascenders/descenders are prominent, producing a slim, vertical silhouette across words.
This font suits short to medium-length copy where a friendly, informal voice is desired—such as packaging callouts, posters, invitations, greeting cards, classroom materials, and social media graphics. It can also work for headings and pull quotes that benefit from a casual, handwritten presence without connecting strokes.
The overall tone is approachable and cheerful, with a modest, homemade charm. Its relaxed irregularities read as personable and human rather than precise, making text feel conversational and lighthearted.
The design appears intended to mimic neat hand printing with a controlled but natural wobble, prioritizing warmth and readability over strict geometric regularity. Its narrow, vertical proportions help it fit compact spaces while retaining a lively, pen-drawn character.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent pen-drawn logic, with simplified constructions and minimal ornament. Figures follow the same narrow, hand-rendered style, keeping color and texture consistent in mixed settings.
